Site news
- May 1, 2008 - After five years, I finally updated my website. Hooray for Cascading Style Sheets! I briefly flirted with switching from my homebrew hand-coding style to a new-fangled layout editor for the site, but then discovered that my "new" product of choice had already been discontinued. Thanks to Lance Hayden's input that I was about four years behind the times, I kept my old system since I was informed that I was now so out-of-date that my old system had actually become fashionable again. For those that are interested, the downside of the new site is that it is no longer 100% XHTML compliant. The upside is that will upset all four or five of you left who care. In the run-up to my cataclysmic 35th birhday, I'm adding lots of new content over the next few days - please forgive any broken or useless links. You can do a "compare and contrast" with the old design here. Enjoy - and send me bug reports if you find problems with the new design...
- April 29, 2007 - Okay, this site is about four years overdue for some real updates. I promise that they're coming soon. Seriously. Unlike the link below from last September when I said I'd update the site. Now I'm not kidding. Also - I'm finally on Wikipedia due to someone mistakenly thinking I'm important.
- September 13, 2006 - Hey, look! I updated something after three and a half years! Actually, it isn't anything useful except a link to the world's most wonderful new website, "What Rich People Do" - an informative and irreverent guide to the best and most of expensive of everything. It's pretty hot and you should check it out. Oh, and I'll update the rest of the site soon.
- March 22, 2003 - Site redesigned and updated, marking my unfortunate typographical surrender to the new Apple-dictated "Myriad" scheme of things (no thanks to you, Lance). Portfolio, Family and Links sections added. The portfolio will be completed soon; the other sections are ongoing projects. The site template is now XML/HTML compliant.
- October 9, 2002 - added photos to the photo album (password required; e-mail me if you need it) and added friends' website links to the "miscellany" links.
